JBI oversees a large international education and training program accessed by clinicians, researchers, academics, health scientists and library scientists from over 50 countries. Thousands of participants have completed JBI courses, focusing on the systematic review of evidence and the implementation of evidence into action. JBI's short, non-award courses, available as part of JBI's educational program, are often delivered by the staff of JBI in Adelaide, Australia, and internationally. Because of our global focus, and in line with our mission to achieve global health through the implementation of the best available evidence into action, JBI established a 'Train-the-Trainer' (TtT) program in 2005. This program initially focused on preparing appropriately qualified and experienced people to deliver the JBI Comprehensive Systematic Review Training Program (CSRTP) to participants unable to attend in Adelaide.
The CSRTP was initially developed in 1999 and has been offered since then by the scientific staff of JBI as a short, non-award course. The TtT program registers those who are not members of JBI to legitimately deliver training based on JBI's intellectual property and accredits those who complete programs delivered by registered trainers and provides them with a certificate of completion. The TtT program is offered on a fee-paying basis to interested persons from JBI entities. To date, hundreds of trainers have been registered with the JBI Training Network from across the globe.
To ensure that our Systematic Reviews are consistently of high quality, JBI views training as a pivotal quality control mechanism to ensure that published reviews in the JBI Evidence Synthesis (JBIES) peer reviewed journal are of a high standard. JBI maintains a database of registered trainers and of participants who have completed our training programs.
In registering trainers who are not members of JBI, JBI permits the use of the internationally known JBI ‘brand’ and of the University of Adelaide’s intellectual property.
To become a registered trainer, interested parties must successfully complete the Train-the-Trainer program. Once a registered trainer, trainers must meet the expectations and requirements for being a trainer and delivering JBI courses. Registered trainers conduct training under the auspices of their collaborating entity as stipulated in the Collaborating Organisation Agreement.
This handbook details all of these requirements and the expectations of JBI Trainers. In addition, this handbook provides information on the TtT program, guidance on conducting CSR courses, and information on JBI’s approach to education and teaching.
